Why do some folk use a separate /boot partition on MBR formatted drives?
#2
It's basically not necessary anymore for any kind of system, and for average everyday home users no need, but there are a few cases where it may be preferred.

1) Big non-container multi disk systems, with multi systems and formats
2)Hybrid disks with separate MBR partitions on GUID disks
3)Big secure systems and portable systems (laptops) where you want grub and keys on a USB stick.
4)Big systems with certain administrative low level security features
